Finding: Great sex life leads to health benefits.

Modern research suggests what most of us already know: A fulfilling sex life makes us generally happier. Scientific evidence proves that couples who partake in regular sex will see an improvement in their overall health and well being.

An increasing number of medics are starting to recognize the growing health benefits regular sex can offer. Doctors are also trialing the theory that the joyfulness of intimacy between couples can also ward off potential disease or illness. Other medical research suggests that our overall health and well being is not solely dependent on components like a healthy heart, genetics and a healthy lifestyle. Sexual satisfaction and inner fulfillment plays a big role in our overall health.

Relationships and dating expert, Linda Thompson, is a full time author for some of the worlds leading online dating sites and personals publications. Linda's advice for couples struggling to maintain a happy and healthy sex life should start to focus on their daily interaction for the healing process to occur. Our busy daily routines often leave sex out, especially for couples who have been dating long term, or who are married. Couples need to strive towards finding balance in their lives.

For a couple to get to know each others particular turn ons, this takes time and lots of practice :) The height of sexual arousal comes from many body areas other than genital stimulation. People have different sensitive areas such as toes, neck or nipples and uncovering all of our partners turn ons can only occur in a long term relationship as opposed to a one time occurrence.

Increasingly, the internet is being utilized by singles as a means to get to know a potential partner without having to enter into a physical connection in the interim. Online dating sites are an ideal way of breaking through some of those personal barriers to weigh up any potential chemistry without having to lay it all on the line.

At this stage, there has been no proven theory, but many researchers across the world are testing the possibility of how the way we think, feel and our sexual system can actually affect the quality of our health. Statistics relating to heart attacks and particular diseases have also been associated with individuals who lead a non intimate life.
